Parental Alienation: Ann O'Keeffe Rogers' Story of Loss and Resilience

Children do not come into this world by moms alone.
Ever felt like the system is rigged against you? Ann O'Keeffe Rogers certainly has. In this compelling episode of 'The Never Give Up Show!', host Bailey Smith sits down with Ann to discuss the heart-wrenching experience of parental alienation. Ann, a mother of four, shares her personal journey through a high-conflict divorce that resulted in the loss of contact with her children, including a special needs child with autism.
Her story is a powerful reminder of the flaws in our judicial system that often favor one parent over the other, leaving families shattered. But Ann's tale isn't just one of loss; it's also one of incredible resilience and advocacy. From her work at the Resolution Center of Jacksonville to her extensive volunteer efforts, Ann has dedicated her life to supporting families dealing with similar issues.
She emphasizes the importance of community outreach and education to raise awareness about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and the devastating effects of domestic violence. Throughout the episode, Bailey and Ann discuss practical coping strategies and available support resources for families navigating the turbulent waters of parental alienation. They also delve into the legal system's shortcomings in handling these complex cases.
One standout moment is when Ann stresses the need for men to share their stories and be more involved in their children's lives, reminding us that 'children do not come into this world by moms alone'. This episode is a must-listen for anyone affected by parental alienation or interested in family dynamics and judicial reform. Ann's message of hope, compassion, and unwavering determination will resonate with all who tune in.
